A key component of a mobile robot system is the ability to localize itself accurately and, simultaneously, to build a map of the environment. Most of the existing algorithms are b...
Localization is the problem of determining the position of a mobile robot from sensor data. Most existing localization approaches are passive, i.e., they do not exploit the opport...
In this paper, we describe methods to localize a mobile robot in an indoor environment from visual information. An appearance-based approach is adopted in which the environment is ...
External perception based on vision plays a critical role in developing improved and robust localization algorithms, as well as gaining important information about the vehicle and ...
The lure of using motion vision as a fundamental element in the perception of space drives this effort to use flow features as the sole cues for robot mobility. Real-time estimat...
